Chapter 183 The Xue family left Xue Litong and his daughter and son-in-law's family in the first month of the year...
Chapter 183 The Xue Family is Gone
Yan Jiuru met Zhang Fendou and several other former good classmates and childhood friends.
This group of people seem reluctant to admit that they are middle-aged and look old, but they are indeed in their thirties or even forties.
First, three or two people gathered together, and as they talked, the group expanded. At first, they just talked, and then they started to prepare a few dishes, drink and brag.
When Yan Jiuru came back at night, he was a little unsteady when he walked.
"Yinyin, Yinyin~" he called out loudly, arms outstretched. "I drank a little, but I'm not drunk. I'm just a little thirsty."
Chen Yin is funny.
Except for the time when he got drunk right after his marriage, this man has been very restrained in drinking over the years. He seems to be really happy today.
"Who did you drink with?" Chen Yin helped him into the house and placed him on the sofa.
Seeing this, Zhuangzhuang quickly ran to his grandfather's room and poured a pot of cold tea.
Yan Jiuru took it and drank it all in one gulp.
After a while, I went to the toilet.
Zhuangzhuang and Xiaohu struggled to help their father go to the toilet.
Chen Yin warned loudly: "Remember to turn on the toilet light, don't fall into the toilet~"
"You, you fell into the toilet, I can't~"
"Tsk~" Chen Yin rolled her eyes. "Remember to brush your teeth and wash up when you get home, or you'll sleep in the same room with your son!"
You reek of alcohol, it stinks!
Jingjing said worriedly, "Can they hold on? Don't let them fall in."
Chen Yin pursed her lips and said, "Well, believe it or not, in a moment your grandfather and great-grandfather will..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard voices coming from outside.
Jingjing ran out to see.
When he came back, he told his mother, "My great-grandfather was worried and wanted to go to the bathroom with me, but my grandfather wouldn't let him go because he was afraid he would slip, so he went to see my dad himself."
"Your father is the apple of your grandfather's eye and your great-grandfather's eye." He won't take anyone away if they fall into the toilet.
Jingjing shook his head and said, "That's right, my dad is the best dad. He is also my grandfather's best son and my great-grandfather's best grandson."
He carried his entire family on his own and brought them from an unknown small mountain village to the capital.
No matter how big a person is, they all behave the same when they are drunk.
The better ones sleep quietly by themselves, while the noisy ones do this and that all the time and insist on getting others' attention.
Yan Jiuru seemed to be drunk but not drunk, and he knew it in his heart, but he relaxed for a rare time today and did not use his magic power to remove the alcohol, so he was in a state of slight tipsiness.
He is a bit petty.
After brushing my teeth and washing my face, I leaned over and waited for Chen Yin to take action.
Anyway, since his wife refused to wash, he looked at her with innocent eyes, as if to say, "You don't love me anymore, you despise me."
I was almost about to cry.
Chen Yin couldn't do anything to him.
Then he stretched out his arms to ask for help in changing his clothes, and asked for help in washing his feet and wiping his face. In short, by the time he was clean and put to bed, Chen Yin was exhausted and sweating.
Chen Yin tidied up the room again, and let the old and the young go to bed before returning to her own room.
As soon as she lay down, the person who was already asleep next to her opened his eyes, smiled, turned over and hugged her.
"Get out of the way~"
Chen Yin nudged him with her elbow.
It doesn't work.
There was a rustling sound in the quilt.
The room is soundproofed, so you don't have to worry about being heard even if you make some noise.
The drunken man was a little too excited and tore the clothes of the two people everywhere. His movements were even more vigorous. The battlefield moved from the kang to the edge of the kang, and then from the edge of the kang to the sofa chair...
Chen Yin is over 30, which is the best age for a woman. She has a stronger need for this than when she was young.
Although it was a bit rough, it was obvious that both of them were very satisfied.
***
The next day, the two woke up feeling particularly energetic.
Chen Yin was in an even better mood, looking radiant.
Ruchun, who had come early to help, nudged her sister-in-law and said with a smile, "Hey, sister-in-law, did you take the Ten-Herbs Tonic Pills last night?"
Chen Yin knew she was joking, so she smiled and rolled her eyes without saying anything.
Xiao Jing chuckled and said, "Sister-in-law, how could she have taken the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Pill? I guess she was taking Yang to replenish Yin. Tsk tsk..."
Chen Yin put down her things and tickled her to stop her from talking too much.
The women immediately started giggling and making a lot of noise.
"Hey, if you already have this, do you still want it?" Xiaojing asked after laughing.
When she said this, Ruchun also looked over.
Chen Yin was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "How can it be such a coincidence? Even if it is a coincidence, how can I not have another child if I'm already pregnant?"
It’s not like she and Yan Jiuru are incapable of raising a child.
After saying that, she looked at Ruchun and Xiaojing: "What? You don't want it anymore?"
Ruchun's family now has three children, the youngest of whom is only three years old this year.
In fact, women in their thirties are most likely to get pregnant. If they do not take precautions, they can easily get pregnant.
Xiaojing and Rushan only have one child, Yuxiu.
Xiao Jing smiled and stroked her belly, whispering, "Maybe it's in the belly. I feel it very accurately."
Ruchun and Chen Yin were both shocked. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Why did you come all the way here? I told you earlier that I wouldn't let you come back."
"No, I really like going back to my hometown. The housing conditions in my hometown are not bad, much better than many people in the city.
Besides, when I get home, there are many people at home, and I don’t have to do anything. It’s quite worry-free to just eat and drink with them.”
That’s true.
Xiao Jing also said: "Since I was little, my mother has always said that I am lazy and greedy, and I need to find a family with good conditions in the future, otherwise I will not be able to live well.
Hey, when Rushan and I were dating, I first asked him if he had a house, and he said yes. Then I asked him if he could eat meat once a week, and he said yes. So I started dating him.
Phew~
Now even my mother-in-law and second aunt, who were busy chopping chicken and duck ribs, couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, we don't need so many people here. Go sit inside and wait for the dumplings to be made."
Chen Yin also stood up, wiped her hands, stood in front of the gate and looked at the river in the distance.
Yan Jiuru took a group of men, big and small, to dig a hole in the ice so that they could eat fresh fish on the night of the 30th.
After a while, I saw Dahuang running back from a distance, with frost on his face from his breath.
"Did you catch a fish?" Chen Yin touched Dahuang's head.
Dahuang shook his head and tail and rubbed Chen Yin's legs, his eyes full of excitement and joy.
Obviously he had eaten his fill first.
Chen Yin went back and shouted, "Let's get started, Da Huang is back."
***
Soon, the men returned to the village in groups of three or five, with the afterglow under their feet, fishing nets and other tools on their shoulders, and fish baskets in their hands, chatting and laughing.
The children also followed the older children in the village to join in the fun and watch the fishing.
At this moment, they were running and jumping excitedly, making a lot of noise and almost reached the doorstep.
Rushan and Rushong first picked out the food for dinner at home and put it away, then picked up a few big fish and threw them into the bucket, and sent the eager children such as Zhuangzhuang to deliver the fish to their relatives' homes one by one.
Yan Jiuru also reminded: "Don't eat at other people's houses, come back early to send it to the next one."
"I know~"
Children are at a age when they love to work and show off, and they like to run errands for adults the most.
Especially during the Chinese New Year when you run errands, every family will give you delicious food.
Although they usually have a lot of food in their mouths, they just like it this way.
Yan's father was also driven out by his wife: "Go and clean up the fish, and take care of the children who are freezing."
It was New Year's Day, so there was no need to talk too much. Dad Yan had no choice but to go and pick up the fish.
***
In fact, except for the 30th day, from the first day to the sixth day of the New Year, I was treated to meals by one family after another, and I basically didn't eat at home very often.
The first family to be invited was my second uncle's family, then Ruchun's family, then Chen Yin's parents' family, where we stayed for the entire second day of the New Year, and then Chen Yin's uncle's family and other relatives.
Wang Dali, Zhang Fendou and others had to drag their family members around with great force and almost got angry before they could get them to join.
Even so, when they returned, there were still many families that hadn't snatched anyone away, which was very regrettable.
"Next time, I'll definitely go to your houses first, ah!"
Yan Jiuru and others waved goodbye out of the car window. Looking at the gradually shrinking mountain village and human figures, they couldn't help feeling a little homesick and reluctant to leave.
Although the elders and fellow villagers in my hometown are sometimes clever and ignorant in some aspects, their merits outweigh their flaws. Their sincere feelings make people who have been hypocritical in big cities for a long time nostalgic for them.
Not to mention the adults, the youngest Yuxiu had already stretched out her hands and started howling at the top of her lungs: "Grandma, Grandma Li..."
"Pfft~" I don't know who laughed first.
Xiaojing gently patted Yuxiu's little bottom and said awkwardly, "I don't know what's wrong with this child. She's been getting along really well with Grandma Li next door these past few days. Every day, after dinner, she's always going to play with her."
Jingjing raised her hand. "I know. Grandma Li has a deck of long cards with various patterns on them. She plays with them every day. My little sister loves playing with them."
Several adults looked at each other in confusion: Was it Hu who they thought was right?
Seeing this, Yan Jiuru smiled at Rusong and Ruyue and said, "Auntie Li used to play with you two like this when you were little. You've all forgotten."
***
After settling down on the train, Chen Yin asked Yan Jiuru, "Is the Xue family really leaving?"
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the Xue family called the brigade headquarters to look for Yan Jiuru.
"Uncle Xue said that after the New Year, when he has finished handling the family business, he will go abroad with his eldest son and take Aunt Xue's ashes with him. He will basically not come back unless there is something important."
The daughter and son-in-law also followed.
There are tragic experiences that are difficult for their family to erase, they are treated like monsters and have no dignity, and there are so-called relatives who are extremely annoying and are now abandoned.
They are going to a new place and start a new life.
Chen Yin sighed softly: "That's fine."
Don’t advise others to do good unless you have experienced their suffering.
If they were in their shoes and were treated like this, they would have fought to the death.
***
"...Uncle Xue has two properties, and his daughter and son-in-law also have two. If we want them, they'll give them to us first."
One of the properties owned by Uncle Xue's daughter and son-in-law is a two-story Western-style building with a small garden near Yanda University;
There is also a 150-square-meter apartment, a solid 150MM, on the third floor, with front and back balconies, two bathrooms, and is well maintained.
The two houses of Uncle Xue’s family are both ancestral property, one is the courtyard house where they live now;
There is also a detached villa that was returned after rehabilitation. It is a French-style self-built villa with ancillary buildings, gardens, etc., covering an area of more than 2,000 square meters. It is currently rented out to a certain unit.
Xue Litong called Yan Jiuru on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year because the prices of houses in Yanjing had increased a lot after they were allowed to be bought and sold. Of course, compared with the past, the actual value was still very low.
However, apart from the apartment building, the prices of the small houses and villas are not low, and there are very few people who can come up with so much cash at once.
Of course, this does not include Yan Jiuru.
Xue Litong knew that Yan Jiuru could definitely come up with it.
Don't ask why you know, it's just intuition.
The big villa is priced at 150,000 yuan, the small Western-style building is 100,000 yuan, the courtyard house is 50,000 yuan, and the apartment is 7,000 yuan.
Yan Jiuru looked at his brothers and sisters and said, "If you want to buy a house, now is a good time to act. When the children grow up, the price of houses will definitely increase several times. If the company does not allocate houses, or if you have to wait for seniority to allocate houses, it is better to buy now and have a reserve."
The house for his younger brothers and sisters was the one he had snatched away and prepared for them.
Rushan and several others have personal experience of this.
Rushan and Xiaojing counted the family savings and said, "Do any of my brothers and sisters want anything? If not, we want the apartment on the third floor."
150MM, four bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms, enough space for the whole family no matter which child it is given to in the future.
It’s not that they don’t want the small Western-style house, but one hundred thousand dollars is simply not enough for the two of them.
It’s better to be practical.
Rusong asked for the small Western-style building.
It's really impressive.
Although no one asked, everyone looked at them wondering, "Where did you get so much money?"
Rusong had no choice but to honestly say, "When I was little, I followed the old man and his friends to exchange junk. All the change I got was my own. Last year, I sold a few pieces..."
Rushan also had a few things, but when he went out to exchange for junk, he got much less, and he didn't save up many good things in total.
Those items still seem to have great potential for appreciation, so he has no plans to sell them for the time being.
In the end, Ruyue asked for the courtyard house.
She only had the money her eldest brother had saved, which was exactly 50,000 yuan. Anyway, the Xue family's courtyard house was close to home, so it would be convenient for her to live there in the future.
***
Yan Jiuru knew that the Xue family was anxious, so he got off the car, settled down, and then went to the Xue family to talk.
The Xue family was more anxious than he imagined, and even took the initiative to reduce the price by 10%.
Xue Litong held Yan Jiuru's hand and said with great emotion, "You saved my wife and me and helped us save our current house. Now, after all this trouble, I have to trouble you again."
The brother and sister of the Xue family are very rude. They threaten to cause trouble to anyone who comes to talk about a house recently.
Of course, people who buy houses don’t want to see disputes over the house, so they all back out.
But when it came to Yan Jiuru, the two of them didn't have the courage to make trouble.
Yan Jiuru accepted Xue Litong's offer to reduce the price, and then converted all the payment for the house into US dollars!
This is much more convenient than the Xue family changing it themselves.
Xue Litong and his daughter and son-in-law went abroad before the Lantern Festival.
Never come back again in this life.
Yan Jiuru had "cleaned up" several properties, especially the Xue family courtyard, after all, Aunt Xue worked here for a long time.
***
That’s not all. Now that the Chinese New Year is almost over, the craze for going abroad is even stronger.
For a time, both the children of former cadres and former popular stars went abroad.
If you want to go abroad, you need money, and the most valuable thing right now is real estate in Yancheng.
Therefore, it was difficult for Yan Jiuru to refuse when he was approached by many people he knew or who were indirectly introduced to him.
He even had to report to the organization and ask if he could buy it.
Not to mention his task bonus, the income of several factories was just a number, and those who could be found above him were not ordinary people. Therefore, after discussion at the organization, he was specially instructed to buy it as long as it complied with the policy.
There is no purchase restriction in the current policy.
Yan Jiuru picked and chose, and bought more than a dozen properties in Yancheng, Shanghai, and several other scenic cities. Most of them were houses, but there were also villas and shops.
He didn't want any of the buildings.
However, the old man added a few buildings, saying that they would be used by his grandchildren and grandchildren in the future.
While Yan Jiuru was busy with the real estate, Chen Yin and her colleagues at the Computer Information Center began trialing the first version of the Xuan State's own language software system.
